As
CBC news reports, a crowd of several thousand (estimates vary between 1500 and 4000) rallied at the now ironically named Confederation Building to back Premier Danny Williams in his fight with the federal Conservatives and the nationalist rhetoric of the recent throne speech.
Included in the
speakers at the rally today were Danny Williams and federal Liberal MP Scott Simms.
The rally was originally billed as a
non-partisan event with a speakers list that did not include the Premier and his supporters from other parties.
